We’re proud to be partnering with Lithgow City Council to deliver a Growth Management Strategy that will guide the Region’s evolution over the next 20 years.        

Lithgow is at a pivotal developmental stage, and to meet the moment Council is driving an ambitious strategy to diversify the Region’s economy toward renewables, advanced manufacturing and a growing visitor economy.

The need for coordinated long-term planning has never been greater. Mecone’s work will bring together five major studies:

• Local Housing Strategy
• Employment Lands Strategy
• Rural Lands Strategy
• Local Environmental Plan Review
• Infrastructure Capacity & Prioritisation Plan

Together, these will form statutory precursors and shape a clear, evidence-based framework for sustainable, resilient and community-centred growth across Lithgow.

Always on the edge of planning, Mecone and the Mosaic Team have developed and implemented Locali! What’s that? Locali is an engagement tool that allows the community to explore the region and drop feedback in a 3D digital space.
